Cryptic species could represent a substantial fraction of biodiversity. However, inconsistent
definitions and taxonomic treatment of cryptic species prevent informed estimates of their …

Abstract Here, we describe Assemble Species by Automatic Partitioning (ASAP), a new
method to build species partitions from single locus sequence alignments (ie, barcode data …

DNA barcoding has greatly accelerated the pace of specimen identification to the species
level, as well as species delineation. Whereas the application of DNA barcoding to the …

Many recent species delimitation studies rely exclusively on limited analyses of genetic data
analyzed under the multispecies coalescent (MSC) model, and results from these studies …

Describing biological diversity is a challenging endeavour, especially for the small, cryptic
animals that make up the meiofauna. The field of DNA taxonomy, ie, the use of DNA to …

Aspergillus series Versicolores members occur in a wide range of environments and
substrates such as indoor environments, food, clinical materials, soil, caves, marine or …

The Aspergillus series Nigri contains biotechnologically and medically important species.
They can produce hazardous mycotoxins, which is relevant due to the frequent occurrence …

Practical biodiversity conservation relies on delineation of biologically meaningful units.
Manta and devil rays (Mobulidae) are threatened worldwide, yet morphological similarities …

Significant advances have been made in species delimitation and numerous methods can
test precisely defined models of speciation, though the synthesis of phylogeography and …

The field of landscape genetics has been evolving rapidly since its emergence in the early
2000s. New applications, techniques and criticisms of techniques appear like clockwork with …
